Grove City College Raises $36.6M to Set New Fundraising Mark

GROVE CITY, Pa. – Grove City College raised $36.6 million in the 2023-24 fiscal year, shattering previous fundraising records.

The total raised is $15 million more than the previous record and more than twice what the college raised in the 2022-23 fiscal year, according to Jeff Prokovich, vice president for advancement, who leads the college’s fundraising efforts.

“Grove City College is enormously blessed by the support of donors who believe in what we do and how we do it,” said Paul J. McNulty, Grove City College president. “They especially appreciate our long-standing commitment to common-sense traditional values that fortify American freedom. Their generosity fuels our efforts to develop leaders of the highest proficiency, purpose and principles.”

The $36,662,677 total for fiscal year 2023-24 does not include any pledges for future giving, only cash in hand, Prokovich said.

“The generosity and dedication of our donors are critical to our ability to attract students and provide a distinctive, comprehensive and extraordinarily valuable Christ-centered living and learning experience, free of government regulation and political pressure,” Prokovich said.

The college is currently conducting Impact 150: The Anniversary Campaign, a $185 million comprehensive campaign to fund student scholarships; capital improvements across campus, including a renovation of the iconic 90-year-old Rockwell Hall of Science; and enhanced student services.
